ABOUT THE ADVENTURE
Cheat sets, inebriated guests, and prank phone calls are no match for your charm, wit, and wisdom. But with the advent of Fairhaven's full moon that won't quit your exceptionalities will be put to the test. The Station Manager has called upon you and your fellow hosts to get to the bottom of the strange goings on around town!
Tiki Tony's untimely end brings forth a number of troubling questions. You heroes are sent forth to his tiki bar, the Mahalo, to speak with the patrons during his wake in an effort to unravel this rum infused mystery.
ABOUT THE SYSTEM

ABOUT YOUR GM
As a Game Master, I believe that tabletop role-playing games are for everyone. My table is a welcoming space for players of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences. I affirm and support gamers from all walks of life, including those from traditionally marginalized communities.
Diversity in gaming brings fresh perspectives, richer storytelling, and a more engaging experience for all involved. I encourage players to bring their whole selves to the table, and I strive to create an environment where everyone feels safe, respected, and valued.
At my table, respect and inclusion are non-negotiable. Everyone deserves to play without fear of discrimination, harassment, or exclusion. I am committed to fostering a positive and inclusive space where creativity thrives, and all players have the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to the story we create together.
If you're looking for a game where you can be yourself and be part of a welcoming, diverse community, you're in the right place.
